The witch doctor nodded. “That’s fine.”


  After making up her mind, Gu Bailu returned to her room. She opened the Gu family ancestral book and carefully went through it to see if there was anything written on the slave mark flute.

  But there was no mention of it.

  Conversely, the Backlash Gu was mentioned.

  It seemed that the witch doctor hadn’t lied. It was a pity that Lu Fenying wasn’t a man who lost control of his emotions.

  But nothing was absolute.

  If he really was coming here to capture Qian’er, what they needed to know was why. Was it because she had Dragon Spirit Blood, or did he actually have feelings for Qian’er?

  Soon, Feng Qingtian returned after a discussion with Ye Huai.

  He gave her a letter. “This is the latest intelligence. Take a look. I’m afraid that Lu Fenying really knows that we used a fake.”


  Gu Bailu opened the letter curiously. Her plan had been perfect.

  She had even guessed that Lu Fenying would be suspicious, and would examine Mo Qian’er’s body. She had put in a lot of special care into creating the fake scars on the body.

  How had she been discovered?

  However, she was stunned after reading the letter. “Why would he go to the Nether King?!”


  The Nether King was the emissary of the Nether Land.

  Feng Qingtian kissed her forehead and said, “That’s what I want to know. Should I go to the Nether Land and ask?”


  “Don’t go. The Nether King wants to capture Qian’er, too.” Gu Bailu leaned against him and read the letter in confusion. “Was he planning to revive Qian’er?”


  “For him to look for the Nether King, that can be the only possibility, but why does he want to revive Qian’er? The price for getting the Nether King to do something is no small amount.”


  Gu Bailu smiled. “We’ll know once he arrives.”


  It was only now that Gu Bailu realized that Lu Fenying was quite interesting.

  He wouldn’t let go of Qian’er, not even when she died, and wanted to bring her back to life. There was something more to the deep feelings involved here.

  The key was what type of feelings those were.

  Before she went to bed, Gu Bailu told Feng Qingtian that she wanted to find someone for Qian’er to do a blood swap with.

  The next day, the butler gave her a list of maids in Prince Zi’s house and described each of their characters.

  Some maids were gentle and cute, but…… perhaps because of their identities as maids, they weren’t lively at all.

  Gu Bailu wasn’t satisfied after she saw them.

  After the butler left, the witch doctor came, and Gu Bailu remembered that she had to send the witch doctor to the Gu house today.

  News of Gu Bailu’s return to Prince Zi’s house had started to spread throughout Pale Emperor City since yesterday.

  Everybody was dumbfounded. Did Prince Zi like this trash of the Gu family or not?

  If he liked her, why did he kick her out again and again?

  And to say that he didn’t like her at all wasn’t right; the imperial announcement which he put up said that he was looking for his wife.

  He had spent a lot of effort to track her down and bring her back.

  Everybody on the streets wondered what was going on.

  Some people even bet that Gu Bailu would be kicked out of Prince Zi’s residence again soon.

  Nobody dared to bet openly, and it was all under the table.

  After all, the people who had cursed that the baby inside Gu Bailu’s stomach was a bastard were already six feet underground.

  Gu Bailu had no idea of this gossip. The luxurious but low-key carriage reached the Gu house.

  The Gu house was the same as before she left. Even the maids at the door were very obedient.

  Everybody greeted her respectfully.
